Description:Tiffany Vazquez joins to talk about Barry Jenkins, who is arguably the most impactful individual who has worked with A24. Moonlight famously won the Best Picture Academy Award, and he's been putting out great work ever since. We briefly touch on If Beale Street Could Talk, The Underground Railroad, Mufasa, and we get into his influence as a Producer. People might be surprised by how many films that he has produced and distributed with A24. He's a monumental talent and he's not done.Links:Video of this episode Tiffany Vazquez Channel at CineJourneysFrom Shakespeare to Street Fighter: The Range of Raúl JuliáFind Tiffany at Instagram | BlueSky | TwitterFollow Us:Cinejourneys - YouTube Channel | Facebook Page | Facebook Group | Instagram | Letterboxd | BlueSky | ThreadsJill Blake - BlueSkyAaron West - BlueSky | Letterboxd

Description:Alex Mell-Taylor from Alex Has Opinions joins to talk about A24 and representation. We talk about some of the recent examples of positive representation and compare it with some not so great examples. We also talk about how someone who is not part of a particular group benefits from seeing what their life is like when representative actually reflects that experience, and how great it feels for people to see characters and stories that they can identify with on screen. Links: Video of this episode Alex Has Opinions - WebsiteAlex's PatreonFollow Us:Cinejourneys - YouTube Channel | Facebook Page | Facebook Group | Instagram | Letterboxd | BlueSky | ThreadsJill Blake - BlueSkyAaron West - BlueSky | Letterboxd

Aaron is joined by Chris Haskell from They Live by Film and Punk Vacation to talk about Miramax and how they laid the groundwork for A24 to become a major independent film player.

Description:Becky D'Anna joins to talk about Alex Garland, and specifically the films that have been released by A24 -- Ex Machina, Men, and Civil War. We talk about the sense of dread that he creates and how he's such an excellent writer. Becky compares his work to Ingmar Bergman. He uses sound and photography to accomplish this, and there are parallels to Hour of the Wolf, Shame, and others.Links:  Video of this episode  The A24 New Wave KickstarterBecky's WebsiteBecky's LetterboxdBecky's BlueSkyBecky's Twitter/XFollow Us:Cinejourneys - YouTube Channel | Facebook Page | Facebook Group | Instagram | Letterboxd | BlueSky | ThreadsJill Blake - BlueSkyAaron West - BlueSky | Letterboxd
